Final Fantasy Collector’s Video

Released as a promotional item by SquareSoft in 1997, the SquareSoft Collector’s Video is a VHS tape that was given away by SquareSoft mainly to promote the English release of Final Fantasy VII.

The VHS tape primarily features Final Fantasy VII, and includes 7 cut scenes from the game as well as a brief history on it’s development. There are also interviews with various members of the creative team at SquareSoft such as Hironobu Sakaguchi and Nobuo Uematsu.

In addition to the Final Fantasy VII content the tape includes trailers/footage from Final Fantasy Tactics, Saga Frontier, and Bushido Blade.

The video clocks in at around 20 minutes in total. Check out the three vids below to spare yourself the trouble of tracking a copy of the Collector’s Video (and a working VCR).

Nice!! Promo videos are always a nice piece to add to a collection. I’d love to get my hands on a few of the old Tips & Tricks tapes from the NES/SNES days. Saga Frontier was one of my favorite PS1 games. I need to pick that up again(mine got destroyed).

Video Games are Rad is a blog mostly about old video games. It has been written by Nathan White since 2007. Come, marvel in this expression of eternal love for RPGs, the Famicom, and pixelated wonderment- or not. Whatever.
